| EU record number | Company/Institution | Host organism | Project title | Trait |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| B/BE/21/V1 | VIB | Poplar | Field evaluation of poplars with a modified wood composition |
Altered wood composition (less lignin and more cellulose) resulting from the downregulation of the Caffeoyl Shikimate Esterase (CSE) enzyme through RNAi. |
| B/BE/18/V8 | VIB | Maize | Scientific field evaluation of maize with an impaired DNA-repair mechanism and maize with modified growth characteristics |
Maize plants edited using the CRISPR/Cas9 system resulting in a single base pair mutation in either the ALT gene (that plays a role in the repair of DNA damage) or the NGAL2 gene (a transcription factor that has been shown to negatively affect the expression of the PLA1 gene coding for a cytochrome P450 mono-oxygenase enzyme). |
| B/BE/10/V1 | University of Ghent | Potato | Two year field trial with genetically modified potatoes that are less susceptible to late blight |
Decreased susceptibility to late blight |
| B/BE/10/V2 | BASF Plant Science | Potato | Application for the release into the environment of potato lines with improved resistance to Phytophtora infestans, 2011 and 2012 |
Improved resistance to Phytophtora infestans |
